...and we are as busy as Santa's elves, getting our musical wares ready for the festive season. So much to talk about!

New Artist: We are very happy to announce that Olivia Dacre has joined Seahouse Records. At just 15 years old Olivia is the youngest artist we have, but she is already established as a seasoned live performer and is dedicating her time to developing her songwriting. Her debut single Stomach Knots is out on 9th December, and you can pre-save it here

New Releases: Emker Cel releases a revamped Blue Xmas as a festive treat today! You can hear the remixed, remastered version on Bandcamp here

Not content with that, he's also done a brand new single, Not My Enemy, which is out on 10th December. This is the first single from the new Emker Cel album which is due out in the Spring.

Elsewhere, Jonny Swift is in holiday mode with his new single Kalimera, the title track from his third album which is due out in January. The single is due for release on 2nd December, and keep a look out for the video too! Jonny has also produced his latest Bags Of Love podcast which features a few Seahouse artists amongst its usual excellent selection of original music from the Furness area.

Finally (for now) we have a brand new single from Jamie Bosanko. When You're Dancing is Jamie at his best, an energetic blast of uptempo rock which has already proven to be a live favourite. Out on 16th December, you can do the hyper-follow thing here

Keep warm and keep dancing folks. We'll be back with more before the big day.
